From f893a0080d0af6d1f02c05de79d21598f614fa4b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Hausmann <simon@xxxxxx> Date: Thu, 5 Apr 2007 10:03:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Make it possible to run git-archive --remote and --list without a git directory. Try a gentle git directory setup for the archive command that remains fatal for the local case but permits operation without a local git repository when using --remote. If in the remote case a git directory is present it will then still be used for proxy settings, but that is optional now.
